LF: Re: GB4FPR 472.5 KHZ INTERNATIONAL MARCONI DAY

[Andre Guyé <andre.guye1@aliceadsl.fr>]

Hello Graham,

 

I heard you signal peaking 589 at MARCONI DAY evening.

 

Sorry, you had some RX problem on 630 m , because you don’t copy some stations calling you, except Finbar and Chris, and also on 3566 : you never heard me and 2 other stations answering to your QSX CQ.

 

You said that you had a 599 QRN. That is not possible because the band was extremly quiet. I think you had bad man made local noises.

 

Here I heard this night on 630m CW,from 2000 to 2400 TU, 19 diferents calls coming from 10 DXCC countries. It was great !

 

Still waiting for a transmitting licence in France.

 

Best 73. Andy. F6CNI.

Hi, Graham.

 

I copied you quite strongly last night at about RST569. Your signals were quite steady with little QSB.

 

You were being called by G3XIZ (599), and by G3KEV, who was about the same strength as you.

 

Glad you made a few QSO.

Ok Stefan

 

Last  night  was one of those  paranormal   sessions, no  internet  link,  HF some what muffled   ,  S9   wide band  noise , to  finding  the  lights did  not  work   at  dusk  , the   MF Rx  not switching to   full   sensitivity on Rx   to  finally  the  exciter  failing  at  2300z

 

I did  here  you  calling  cq , about   559 

 

But we  did  mange to  work  EI0CF  and  G3XIZ , with  everything  working , no  replys  to  x-band cq's   .. well  non   we  detected  over the  S9 noise 

 

Tnx to  those who  called  ,

 

73 -Graham.

G..,

I've heared GB4FPR quite well for a few times but you've been less than 100 Hz distant to the LSB of "BIA" which made listening quite uncomfortable. I've answered to your CQ and you called QRZ? but then nothing...
What's been wrong?
Will you be there tomorrow again?

G..,

Will you be there in the night, e.g. 21 UTC? And is it possible to contact you via the reflector, e.g. to ask for QSY (back from 80m to 630m) ??

I've started by switching the antenna to MF and send some WSPR until i'm back in the shack in the late evening. Hope you do not go to bed to early!
